CHAPTER XXXVI UP CHAPTER XXXVIII CHAPTER XXXVII The Reaper Whose Name Is Death "Matthew--Matthew--what is the matter? Matthew, are you sick?" It was Marilla who spoke, alarm in every jerky word. Anne came through the hall, her hands full of white narcissus,--it was long before Anne could love the sight or odor of white narcissus again,--in time to hear her and to see Matthew standing in the porch doorway, a folded paper in his hand, and his face strangely drawn and gray. Anne dropped her flowers and sprang across the kitchen to him at the same moment as Marilla. They were both too late; before they could reach him Matthew had fallen across the threshold. "He s fainted," gasped Marilla. "Anne, run for Martin-- quick, quick! He s at the barn." Martin, the hired man, who had just driven home from the post office, started at once for the doctor, calling at Orchard Slope on his way to send Mr. and Mrs. Barry over. Mrs. Lynde, who was there on an errand, came too. They found Anne and Marilla distractedly trying to restore Matthew to consciousness. Mrs. Lynde pushed them gently aside, tried his pulse, and then laid her ear over his heart. She looked at their anxious faces sorrowfully and the tears came into her eyes. "Oh, Marilla," she said gravely. "I don t think--we can do anything for him." "Mrs. Lynde, you don t think--you can t think Matthew is-- is--" Anne could not say the dreadful word; she turned sick and pallid. "Child, yes, I m afraid of it. Look at his face. When you ve seen that look as often as I have you ll know what it means." Anne looked at the still face and there beheld the seal of the Great Presence. When the doctor came he said that death had been instantaneous and probably painless, caused in all likelihood by some sudden shock. The secret of the shock was discovered to be in the paper Matthew had held and which Martin had brought from the office that morning. It contained an account of the failure of the Abbey Bank. The news spread quickly through Avonlea, and all day friends and neighbors thronged Green Gables and came and went on errands of kindness for the dead and living. For the first time shy, quiet Matthew Cuthbert was a person of central importance; the white majesty of death had fallen on him and set him apart as one crowned. When the calm night came softly down over Green Gables the old house was hushed and tranquil. In the parlor lay Matthew Cuthbert in his coffin, his long gray hair framing his placid face on which there was a little kindly smile as if he but slept, dreaming pleasant dreams. There were flowers about him--sweet old-fashioned flowers which his mother had planted in the homestead garden in her bridal days and for which Matthew had always had a secret, wordless love. Anne had gathered them and brought them to him, her anguished, tearless eyes burning in her white face. It was the last thing she could do for him. The Barrys and Mrs. Lynde stayed with them that night. Diana, going to the east gable, where Anne was standing at her window, said gently "Anne dear, would you like to have me sleep with you tonight?" "Thank you, Diana." Anne looked earnestly into her friend s face. "I think you won t misunderstand me when I say I want to be alone. I m not afraid. I haven t been alone one minute since it happened-- and I want to be. I want to be quite silent and quiet and try to realize it. I can t realize it. Half the time it seems to me that Matthew can t be dead; and the other half it seems as if he must have been dead for a long time and I ve had this horrible dull ache ever since." Diana did not quite understand. Marilla s impassioned grief, breaking all the bounds of natural reserve and lifelong habit in its stormy rush, she could comprehend better than Anne s tearless agony. But she went away kindly, leaving Anne alone to keep her first vigil with sorrow. Anne hoped that the tears would come in solitude. It seemed to her a terrible thing that she could not shed a tear for Matthew, whom she had loved so much and who had been so kind to her, Matthew who had walked with her last evening at sunset and was now lying in the dim room below with that awful peace on his brow. But no tears came at first, even when she knelt by her window in the darkness and prayed, looking up to the stars beyond the hills--no tears, only the same horrible dull ache of misery that kept on aching until she fell asleep, worn out with the day s pain and excitement. In the night she awakened, with the stillness and the darkness about her, and the recollection of the day came over her like a wave of sorrow. She could see Matthew s face smiling at her as he had smiled when they parted at the gate that last evening--she could hear his voice saying, "My girl--my girl that I m proud of." Then the tears came and Anne wept her heart out. Marilla heard her and crept in to comfort her. "There--there--don t cry so, dearie. It can t bring him back. It--it--isn t right to cry so. I knew that today, but I couldn t help it then. He d always been such a good, kind brother to me--but God knows best." "Oh, just let me cry, Marilla," sobbed Anne. "The tears don t hurt me like that ache did. Stay here for a little while with me and keep your arm round me--so. I couldn t have Diana stay, she s good and kind and sweet--but it s not her sorrow--she s outside of it and she couldn t come close enough to my heart to help me. It s our sorrow-- yours and mine. Oh, Marilla, what will we do without him?" "We ve got each other, Anne. I don t know what I d do if you weren t here--if you d never come. Oh, Anne, I know I ve been kind of strict and harsh with you maybe-- but you mustn t think I didn t love you as well as Matthew did, for all that. I want to tell you now when I can. It s never been easy for me to say things out of my heart, but at times like this it s easier. I love you as dear as if you were my own flesh and blood and you ve been my joy and comfort ever since you came to Green Gables." Two days afterwards they carried Matthew Cuthbert over his homestead threshold and away from the fields he had tilled and the orchards he had loved and the trees he had planted; and then Avonlea settled back to its usual placidity and even at Green Gables affairs slipped into their old groove and work was done and duties fulfilled with regularity as before, although always with the aching sense of "loss in all familiar things." Anne, new to grief, thought it almost sad that it could be so--that they COULD go on in the old way without Matthew. She felt something like shame and remorse when she discovered that the sunrises behind the firs and the pale pink buds opening in the garden gave her the old inrush of gladness when she saw them--that Diana s visits were pleasant to her and that Diana s merry words and ways moved her to laughter and smiles--that, in brief, the beautiful world of blossom and love and friendship had lost none of its power to please her fancy and thrill her heart, that life still called to her with many insistent voices. "It seems like disloyalty to Matthew, somehow, to find pleasure in these things now that he has gone," she said wistfully to Mrs. Allan one evening when they were together in the manse garden. "I miss him so much--all the time-- and yet, Mrs. Allan, the world and life seem very beautiful and interesting to me for all. Today Diana said something funny and I found myself laughing. I thought when it happened I could never laugh again. And it somehow seems as if I oughtn t to." "When Matthew was here he liked to hear you laugh and he liked to know that you found pleasure in the pleasant things around you," said Mrs. Allan gently. "He is just away now; and he likes to know it just the same. I am sure we should not shut our hearts against the healing influences that nature offers us. But I can understand your feeling. I think we all experience the same thing. We resent the thought that anything can please us when someone we love is no longer here to share the pleasure with us, and we almost feel as if we were unfaithful to our sorrow when we find our interest in life returning to us." "I was down to the graveyard to plant a rosebush on Matthew s grave this afternoon," said Anne dreamily. "I took a slip of the little white Scotch rosebush his mother brought out from Scotland long ago; Matthew always liked those roses the best--they were so small and sweet on their thorny stems. It made me feel glad that I could plant it by his grave--as if I were doing something that must please him in taking it there to be near him. I hope he has roses like them in heaven. Perhaps the souls of all those little white roses that he has loved so many summers were all there to meet him. I must go home now. Marilla is all alone and she gets lonely at twilight." "She will be lonelier still, I fear, when you go away again to college," said Mrs. Allan. Anne did not reply; she said good night and went slowly back to green Gables. Marilla was sitting on the front door-steps and Anne sat down beside her. The door was open behind them, held back by a big pink conch shell with hints of sea sunsets in its smooth inner convolutions. Anne gathered some sprays of pale-yellow honeysuckle and put them in her hair. She liked the delicious hint of fragrance, as some aerial benediction, above her every time she moved. "Doctor Spencer was here while you were away," Marilla said. "He says that the specialist will be in town tomorrow and he insists that I must go in and have my eyes examined. I suppose I d better go and have it over. I ll be more than thankful if the man can give me the right kind of glasses to suit my eyes. You won t mind staying here alone while I m away, will you? Martin will have to drive me in and there s ironing and baking to do." "I shall be all right. Diana will come over for company for me. I shall attend to the ironing and baking beautifully-- you needn t fear that I ll starch the handkerchiefs or flavor the cake with liniment." Marilla laughed. "What a girl you were for making mistakes in them days, Anne. You were always getting into scrapes. I did use to think you were possessed. Do you mind the time you dyed your hair?" "Yes, indeed. I shall never forget it," smiled Anne, touching the heavy braid of hair that was wound about her shapely head. "I laugh a little now sometimes when I think what a worry my hair used to be to me--but I don t laugh MUCH, because it was a very real trouble then. I did suffer terribly over my hair and my freckles. My freckles are really gone; and people are nice enough to tell me my hair is auburn now--all but Josie Pye. She informed me yesterday that she really thought it was redder than ever, or at least my black dress made it look redder, and she asked me if people who had red hair ever got used to having it. Marilla, I ve almost decided to give up trying to like Josie Pye. I ve made what I would once have called a heroic effort to like her, but Josie Pye won t BE liked." "Josie is a Pye," said Marilla sharply, "so she can t help being disagreeable. I suppose people of that kind serve some useful purpose in society, but I must say I don t know what it is any more than I know the use of thistles. Is Josie going to teach?" "No, she is going back to Queen s next year. So are Moody Spurgeon and Charlie Sloane. Jane and Ruby are going to teach and they have both got schools--Jane at Newbridge and Ruby at some place up west." "Gilbert Blythe is going to teach too, isn t he?" "Yes"--briefly. "What a nice-looking fellow he is," said Marilla absently. "I saw him in church last Sunday and he seemed so tall and manly. He looks a lot like his father did at the same age. John Blythe was a nice boy. We used to be real good friends, he and I. People called him my beau." Anne looked up with swift interest. "Oh, Marilla--and what happened?--why didn t you--" "We had a quarrel. I wouldn t forgive him when he asked me to. I meant to, after awhile--but I was sulky and angry and I wanted to punish him first. He never came back--the Blythes were all mighty independent. But I always felt--rather sorry. I ve always kind of wished I d forgiven him when I had the chance." "So you ve had a bit of romance in your life, too," said Anne softly. "Yes, I suppose you might call it that. You wouldn t think so to look at me, would you? But you never can tell about people from their outsides. Everybody has forgot about me and John. I d forgotten myself. But it all came back to me when I saw Gilbert last Sunday." CHAPTER XXXVI UP CHAPTER XXXVIII 今日 - | 昨日 - | Total - since 05 June 2007 last update 2007-08-12 01 36 36 (Sun)

CHAPTER VII UP CHAPTER IX CHAPTER VIII Anne s Bringing-up Is Begun For reasons best known to herself, Marilla did not tell Anne that she was to stay at Green Gables until the next afternoon. During the forenoon she kept the child busy with various tasks and watched over her with a keen eye while she did them. By noon she had concluded that Anne was smart and obedient, willing to work and quick to learn; her most serious shortcoming seemed to be a tendency to fall into daydreams in the middle of a task and forget all about it until such time as she was sharply recalled to earth by a reprimand or a catastrophe. When Anne had finished washing the dinner dishes she suddenly confronted Marilla with the air and expression of one desperately determined to learn the worst. Her thin little body trembled from head to foot; her face flushed and her eyes dilated until they were almost black; she clasped her hands tightly and said in an imploring voice "Oh, please, Miss Cuthbert, won t you tell me if you are going to send me away or not? I ve tried to be patient all the morning, but I really feel that I cannot bear not knowing any longer. It s a dreadful feeling. Please tell me." "You haven t scalded the dishcloth in clean hot water as I told you to do," said Marilla immovably. "Just go and do it before you ask any more questions, Anne." Anne went and attended to the dishcloth. Then she returned to Marilla and fastened imploring eyes of the latter s face. "Well," said Marilla, unable to find any excuse for deferring her explanation longer, "I suppose I might as well tell you. Matthew and I have decided to keep you--that is, if you will try to be a good little girl and show yourself grateful. Why, child, whatever is the matter?" "I m crying," said Anne in a tone of bewilderment. "I can t think why. I m glad as glad can be. Oh, GLAD doesn t seem the right word at all. I was glad about the White Way and the cherry blossoms--but this! Oh, it s something more than glad. I m so happy. I ll try to be so good. It will be uphill work, I expect, for Mrs. Thomas often told me I was desperately wicked. However, I ll do my very best. But can you tell me why I m crying?" "I suppose it s because you re all excited and worked up," said Marilla disapprovingly. "Sit down on that chair and try to calm yourself. I m afraid you both cry and laugh far too easily. Yes, you can stay here and we will try to do right by you. You must go to school; but it s only a fortnight till vacation so it isn t worth while for you to start before it opens again in September." "What am I to call you?" asked Anne. "Shall I always say Miss Cuthbert? Can I call you Aunt Marilla?" "No; you ll call me just plain Marilla. I m not used to being called Miss Cuthbert and it would make me nervous." "It sounds awfully disrespectful to just say Marilla," protested Anne. "I guess there ll be nothing disrespectful in it if you re careful to speak respectfully. Everybody, young and old, in Avonlea calls me Marilla except the minister. He says Miss Cuthbert--when he thinks of it." "I d love to call you Aunt Marilla," said Anne wistfully. "I ve never had an aunt or any relation at all--not even a grandmother. It would make me feel as if I really belonged to you. Can t I call you Aunt Marilla?" "No. I m not your aunt and I don t believe in calling people names that don t belong to them." "But we could imagine you were my aunt." "I couldn t," said Marilla grimly. "Do you never imagine things different from what they really are?" asked Anne wide-eyed. "No." "Oh!" Anne drew a long breath. "Oh, Miss--Marilla, how much you miss!" "I don t believe in imagining things different from what they really are," retorted Marilla. "When the Lord puts us in certain circumstances He doesn t mean for us to imagine them away. And that reminds me. Go into the sitting room, Anne--be sure your feet are clean and don t let any flies in--and bring me out the illustrated card that s on the mantelpiece. The Lord s Prayer is on it and you ll devote your spare time this afternoon to learning it off by heart. There s to be no more of such praying as I heard last night." "I suppose I was very awkward," said Anne apologetically, "but then, you see, I d never had any practice. You couldn t really expect a person to pray very well the first time she tried, could you? I thought out a splendid prayer after I went to bed, just as I promised you I would. It was nearly as long as a minister s and so poetical. But would you believe it? I couldn t remember one word when I woke up this morning. And I m afraid I ll never be able to think out another one as good. Somehow, things never are so good when they re thought out a second time. Have you ever noticed that?" "Here is something for you to notice, Anne. When I tell you to do a thing I want you to obey me at once and not stand stock-still and discourse about it. Just you go and do as I bid you." Anne promptly departed for the sitting-room across the hall; she failed to return; after waiting ten minutes Marilla laid down her knitting and marched after her with a grim expression. She found Anne standing motionless before a picture hanging on the wall between the two windows, with her eyes astar with dreams. The white and green light strained through apple trees and clustering vines outside fell over the rapt little figure with a half-unearthly radiance. "Anne, whatever are you thinking of?" demanded Marilla sharply. Anne came back to earth with a start. "That," she said, pointing to the picture--a rather vivid chromo entitled, "Christ Blessing Little Children"--"and I was just imagining I was one of them--that I was the little girl in the blue dress, standing off by herself in the corner as if she didn t belong to anybody, like me. She looks lonely and sad, don t you think? I guess she hadn t any father or mother of her own. But she wanted to be blessed, too, so she just crept shyly up on the outside of the crowd, hoping nobody would notice her--except Him. I m sure I know just how she felt. Her heart must have beat and her hands must have got cold, like mine did when I asked you if I could stay. She was afraid He mightn t notice her. But it s likely He did, don t you think? I ve been trying to imagine it all out--her edging a little nearer all the time until she was quite close to Him; and then He would look at her and put His hand on her hair and oh, such a thrill of joy as would run over her! But I wish the artist hadn t painted Him so sorrowful looking. All His pictures are like that, if you ve noticed. But I don t believe He could really have looked so sad or the children would have been afraid of Him." "Anne," said Marilla, wondering why she had not broken into this speech long before, "you shouldn t talk that way. It s irreverent--positively irreverent." Anne s eyes marveled. "Why, I felt just as reverent as could be. I m sure I didn t mean to be irreverent." "Well I don t suppose you did--but it doesn t sound right to talk so familiarly about such things. And another thing, Anne, when I send you after something you re to bring it at once and not fall into mooning and imagining before pictures. Remember that. Take that card and come right to the kitchen. Now, sit down in the corner and learn that prayer off by heart." Anne set the card up against the jugful of apple blossoms she had brought in to decorate the dinner-table--Marilla had eyed that decoration askance, but had said nothing-- propped her chin on her hands, and fell to studying it intently for several silent minutes. "I like this," she announced at length. "It s beautiful. I ve heard it before--I heard the superintendent of the asylum Sunday school say it over once. But I didn t like it then. He had such a cracked voice and he prayed it so mournfully. I really felt sure he thought praying was a disagreeable duty. This isn t poetry, but it makes me feel just the same way poetry does. `Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be Thy name. That is just like a line of music. Oh, I m so glad you thought of making me learn this, Miss-- Marilla." "Well, learn it and hold your tongue," said Marilla shortly. Anne tipped the vase of apple blossoms near enough to bestow a soft kiss on a pink-cupped bud, and then studied diligently for some moments longer. "Marilla," she demanded presently, "do you think that I shall ever have a bosom friend in Avonlea?" "A--a what kind of friend?" "A bosom friend--an intimate friend, you know--a really kindred spirit to whom I can confide my inmost soul. I ve dreamed of meeting her all my life. I never really supposed I would, but so many of my loveliest dreams have come true all at once that perhaps this one will, too. Do you think it s possible?" "Diana Barry lives over at Orchard Slope and she s about your age. She s a very nice little girl, and perhaps she will be a playmate for you when she comes home. She s visiting her aunt over at Carmody just now. You ll have to be careful how you behave yourself, though. Mrs. Barry is a very particular woman. She won t let Diana play with any little girl who isn t nice and good." Anne looked at Marilla through the apple blossoms, her eyes aglow with interest. "What is Diana like? Her hair isn t red, is it? Oh, I hope not. It s bad enough to have red hair myself, but I positively couldn t endure it in a bosom friend." "Diana is a very pretty little girl. She has black eyes and hair and rosy cheeks. And she is good and smart, which is better than being pretty." Marilla was as fond of morals as the Duchess in Wonderland, and was firmly convinced that one should be tacked on to every remark made to a child who was being brought up. But Anne waved the moral inconsequently aside and seized only on the delightful possibilities before it. "Oh, I m so glad she s pretty. Next to being beautiful oneself--and that s impossible in my case--it would be best to have a beautiful bosom friend. When I lived with Mrs. Thomas she had a bookcase in her sitting room with glass doors. There weren t any books in it; Mrs. Thomas kept her best china and her preserves there--when she had any preserves to keep. One of the doors was broken. Mr. Thomas smashed it one night when he was slightly intoxicated. But the other was whole and I used to pretend that my reflection in it was another little girl who lived in it. I called her Katie Maurice, and we were very intimate. I used to talk to her by the hour, especially on Sunday, and tell her everything. Katie was the comfort and consolation of my life. We used to pretend that the bookcase was enchanted and that if I only knew the spell I could open the door and step right into the room where Katie Maurice lived, instead of into Mrs. Thomas shelves of preserves and china. And then Katie Maurice would have taken me by the hand and led me out into a wonderful place, all flowers and sunshine and fairies, and we would have lived there happy for ever after. When I went to live with Mrs. Hammond it just broke my heart to leave Katie Maurice. She felt it dreadfully, too, I know she did, for she was crying when she kissed me good-bye through the bookcase door. There was no bookcase at Mrs. Hammond s. But just up the river a little way from the house there was a long green little valley, and the loveliest echo lived there. It echoed back every word you said, even if you didn t talk a bit loud. So I imagined that it was a little girl called Violetta and we were great friends and I loved her almost as well as I loved Katie Maurice--not quite, but almost, you know. The night before I went to the asylum I said good-bye to Violetta, and oh, her good-bye came back to me in such sad, sad tones. I had become so attached to her that I hadn t the heart to imagine a bosom friend at the asylum, even if there had been any scope for imagination there." "I think it s just as well there wasn t," said Marilla drily. "I don t approve of such goings-on. You seem to half believe your own imaginations. It will be well for you to have a real live friend to put such nonsense out of your head. But don t let Mrs. Barry hear you talking about your Katie Maurices and your Violettas or she ll think you tell stories." "Oh, I won t. I couldn t talk of them to everybody--their memories are too sacred for that. But I thought I d like to have you know about them. Oh, look, here s a big bee just tumbled out of an apple blossom. Just think what a lovely place to live--in an apple blossom! Fancy going to sleep in it when the wind was rocking it. If I wasn t a human girl I think I d like to be a bee and live among the flowers." "Yesterday you wanted to be a sea gull," sniffed Marilla. "I think you are very fickle minded. I told you to learn that prayer and not talk. But it seems impossible for you to stop talking if you ve got anybody that will listen to you. So go up to your room and learn it." "Oh, I know it pretty nearly all now--all but just the last line." "Well, never mind, do as I tell you. Go to your room and finish learning it well, and stay there until I call you down to help me get tea." "Can I take the apple blossoms with me for company?" pleaded Anne. "No; you don t want your room cluttered up with flowers. You should have left them on the tree in the first place." "I did feel a little that way, too," said Anne. "I kind of felt I shouldn t shorten their lovely lives by picking them--I wouldn t want to be picked if I were an apple blossom. But the temptation was IRRESISTIBLE. What do you do when you meet with an irresistible temptation?" "Anne, did you hear me tell you to go to your room?" Anne sighed, retreated to the east gable, and sat down in a chair by the window. "There--I know this prayer. I learned that last sentence coming upstairs. Now I m going to imagine things into this room so that they ll always stay imagined. The floor is covered with a white velvet carpet with pink roses all over it and there are pink silk curtains at the windows. The walls are hung with gold and silver brocade tapestry. The furniture is mahogany. I never saw any mahogany, but it does sound SO luxurious. This is a couch all heaped with gorgeous silken cushions, pink and blue and crimson and gold, and I am reclining gracefully on it. I can see my reflection in that splendid big mirror hanging on the wall. I am tall and regal, clad in a gown of trailing white lace, with a pearl cross on my breast and pearls in my hair. My hair is of midnight darkness and my skin is a clear ivory pallor. My name is the Lady Cordelia Fitzgerald. No, it isn t--I can t make THAT seem real." She danced up to the little looking-glass and peered into it. Her pointed freckled face and solemn gray eyes peered back at her. "You re only Anne of Green Gables," she said earnestly, "and I see you, just as you are looking now, whenever I try to imagine I m the Lady Cordelia. But it s a million times nicer to be Anne of Green Gables than Anne of nowhere in particular, isn t it?" She bent forward, kissed her reflection affectionately, and betook herself to the open window. "Dear Snow Queen, good afternoon. And good afternoon dear birches down in the hollow. And good afternoon, dear gray house up on the hill. I wonder if Diana is to be my bosom friend. I hope she will, and I shall love her very much. But I must never quite forget Katie Maurice and Violetta. They would feel so hurt if I did and I d hate to hurt anybody s feelings, even a little bookcase girl s or a little echo girl s. I must be careful to remember them and send them a kiss every day." Anne blew a couple of airy kisses from her fingertips past the cherry blossoms and then, with her chin in her hands, drifted luxuriously out on a sea of daydreams.

Prelude CHORUS May the god of wit inspire, the sacred nine to bear a part; and the blessed heavenly quire, shew the utmost of their art. While Eccho shall in sounds remote, repeat each note, each note, each note. (Then a composition of instrumental music, in imitation of an eccho.) Eccho CHORUS Now join your warbling voices all. (Then a fairy dance) A dance of fairies Song and Chorus Sing while we trip it on the green; but no ill vapours rise or fall, nothing offend our fairy queen. (Titania leaves down. Enter Night, Mystery, Secresie, Sleep, and their attendants.) NIGHT See, even night her self is here, to favour your design; and all her peaceful train in near, that men to sleep incline. Let noise and care, doubt and despair, envy and Spight, (the fiends delight) be ever Banish d hence, let soft repose, her eye-lids close; and murmuring streams, bring pleasing dreams; let nothing stay to give offence. MYSTERY I am come to lock all fast, love without me cannot last. Love, like counsels of the wise, must be hid from vulgar eyes. Tis holy, and we must conceal it, they profane it, who reveal it. SECRESIE One charming night gives more delight, than a hundred lucky days. Night and I improve the tast, make the pleasure longer last, a thousand, thousand several ways. SLEEP Hush, no more, be silent all, sweet repose has clos d her eyes. Soft as feather d snow does fall! Softly, softly, steal from hence. No noise disturb her sleeping sence. A dance for the followers of Night (Oberon squeezes the flowers on Titania; Lysander and Hermia fall asleep.) ACT III (Enter Titania, Bottom and fairies. The scene changes to a great wood, a long row of large trees on each side; a river in the middle, two rows of lesser trees of a different kind just on the side of the river, which meet in the middle, and make so marry arches, two great dragons make a bridge over the river, their bodies form two arches, through which two swans are seen in the river at a great distance. Enter a troop of fawns, dryads and naides) CHORUS If love s a sweet passion, why does it torment? If a bitter, oh tell me whence comes my content? Since I suffer with pleasure, why should I complain, or grieve at my fate, when I know tis in vain? Yet so pleasing the pain is, so soft is the dart, that at once it both wounds me, and tickles my heart. I press her hand gently, look languishing down, and by passionate silence I make my love known. But oh! how I m blest when so kind she does prove, by some willing mistake to discover her love. When in striving to hide, she reveals all her flame, and our eyes tell each other, what neither dares name. Symphony while the swans come forward (While the symphony s playing, the two swans come swimming on through the arches to the bank of the river, as if they would land; these turn themselves into fairies and dance; at the same time the bridge vanishes, and the trees that were arch d, raise themselves upright) Dance for the fairies (Four savages enter, fright the fairies away, and dance an entry) Dance for the green men Song Ye gentle spirits of the air, appear; prepare, and joyn your tender voices here. Catch, and repeat the trembling sounds anew, soft as her sighs and sweet as pearly dew. Run new division, and such measures keep, as when you lull the god of love asleep. (Enter Coridon and Mopsa) Dialogue between Coridon and Mopsa CORIDON Now the maids and the men are making of hay, we h ve left the dull fools, and are stolen away. Then Mopsa no more be coy as before, but let us merrily play, and kiss the sweet time away. MOPSA Why, how now, Sir Clown, what makes you so bold? I d have ye to know I m not made of that mold. I tell you again, maids must never kiss no men. No, no, no kissing at all; I ll not kiss, till I kiss you for good and all. CORIDON Not kiss you at all? MOPSA No, no, no kissing at all! CORIDON Why no kissing at all? MOPSA I ll not kiss, till I kiss you for good and all. CORIDON Should you give me a score, twould not lessen your store, then bid me chearfully kiss, chearfully kiss and take, and take, my fill of your bliss. MOPSA I ll not trust you so far, I know you too well; should I give you an Inch, you d soon take an ell. Then lordlike you rule, and laugh at the fool. No, no... CORIDON So small a request, you must not, you cannot, you shall not deny, nor will I admit of another reply. MOPSA Nay, what do you mean? O fie, fie, fie! Song A NYMPH When I have often heard young maids complaining, that when men promise most they most deceive, then I thought none of them worthy my gaining; and what they swore, resolv d ne re to believe. But when so humbly he made his addresses, with looks so soft, and with language so kind, I thought it sin to refuse his caresses; nature o ercame, and I soon chang d my mind. Should he employ all his wit in deceiving, stretch his invention, and artfully feign; I find such charms, such true joy in believing, I ll have the pleasure, let him have pain. If he proves perjur d, I shall not be cheated, he may deceive himself, but never me; this what I look for, and shan t be defeated, for I ll be as false and inconstant as he. Dance of Haymakers Song and chorus A thousand, thousand ways we ll find to entertain the hours no two shall e re be known so kind, no life so blest as ours.

Before the trees stand rows of marble columns, which support many walks which rise by stairs to the top of the house; the stairs are adorn d with figures on pedestals, and rails; and balasters on each side of em. Near the top, vast quantities of water break out of the hills, and fall in mighty cascade s to the bottom of the scene, to feed the fountains which are on each side. In the middle of the stage is a very large fountain, where the water rises about twelve foot.

Duet TWO OTHERS Let the fifes, and the clarions, and shrill trumpets sound, and the arch of high heav n the clangor resound. Entry of Phoebus (A machine appears, the clouds break from before it, and Phoebus appears in a chariot drawn by four horses) PHOEBUS When a cruel long winter has frozen the earth, and nature imprison d seeks in vain to be free; I dart forth my beams, to give all things a birth, making spring for the plants, every flower, and each tree. Tis I who give life, warmth, an vigour to all, even love who rules all things in earth, air, and sea; would languish, and fade, and to nothing would fall, the world to its chaos would return, but for me. CHORUS Hail! Great parent of us all, light and comfort of the earth; before your shrine the seasons fall, thou who gives all nature birth. SPRING Thus the ever grateful spring, does her yearly tribute bring; all your sweets before him lay, then round his altar sing, and play. SUMMER Here s the summer, sprightly, gay, smiling, wanton, fresh, and fair; adorn d with all the flowers of may, whose various sweets perfume the air. AUTUMN See my many colour d fields, and loaded trees my will obey; all the fruit that autumn yields, I offer to the god of day. WINTER Now winter comes slowly, pale, meager, and old, first trembling with age, and then quiv ring with cold; benum d with hard frosts, and with snow cover d o re, prays the sun to restore him, and sings as before. CHORUS Hail! Great parent of us all, light and comfort of the earth; before your shrine the seasons fall, thou who gives all nature birth.

Epithalamium JUNO Thrice happy lovers, may you be for ever, ever free, from that tormenting devil, jealousie. From all that anxious care and strife, that attends a married life be to one another true, kind to her as she to you, and since the errors of this night are past, may he be ever constant, she for ever chast. (The machine aspends. After Juno s song, Oberon asks to hear the plaint of Laura for her departed love.) The plaint O let me weep, for ever weep, my eyes no more the shall welcome sleep; I ll hide me from the sight of day, and sigh, and sigh my soul away. He s gone, he s gone, his loss deplore; and I shall never see him more. (While the scene is darken d, a single entry is danded.) Entry dance (Then a symphony is play d) Symphony (After that the scene is suddenly illuminated, and discovers a transparent prospect of a Chinese garden, the architecture, the trees, the plants, the fruits, the birds, the beasts quite different to what we have in this part of the word. It is terminated by an arch, through which is seen other arches with close arbors, and a row of trees to the end of the view. Over it is a hanging garden, which rises by several ascents to the top of the house; it is bounded on either side with pleasant bowers, various trees, and numbers of strange birds flying in the air, on the top of a platform is a fountain, throwing up water, which falls into a large basin. A Chinese man enters and sings) Song A CHINESE MAN Thus the gloomy world at first began to shine, and from the power divine a glory round about it hurl d; which made it bright, and gave it birth in light. Then were all minds as pure, as those ethereal streams; in innocence secure, not subject to extreams. There was no room then for empty fame, no cause for pride, ambition wanted aim. CHINESE WOMAN Thus happy and free, thus treated are we with nature s chiefest delights. We never cloy, but renew our joy, and one bliss another invites. CHORUS Thus wildly we live, thus freely we give, what heaven as freely bestows. We were not made for labour and trade, which fools on each other impose. CHINESE MAN Yes, Daphne, in your looks I find the charms by which my heart s betray d; then let not your disdain unbind the prisoner that your eyes have made. She that in love makes least defence, wounds ever with the surest dart; beauty may captivate the sence, but kindness only gains the heart. (Six monkeys come from between the trees and dance) Monkeys dance (Two women sing in parts) 1st WOMAN Hark how all things with one sound rejoice, and the world seems to have one voice. 2nd WOMAN Hark now the echoing air a triumph sings, and all around pleas d Cupids clap their wings. CHORUS Hark! Hark! 2nd WOMAN Sure the dull god of marriage does not hear BOTH We ll rouse him with a charm. Hymen, appear! CHORUS Hymen, appear! BOTH Our Queen of Night commands thee not to stay. Appear! CHORUS Our Queen... (Enter Hymen.) Prelude HYMEN See, see, I obey. My torch has long been out, I hate on loose dissembled vows to wait, where hardly love out-lives the wedding-night, false flames, love s meteors, yield my torch no light. (Six pedestals of china-work rise from under the stage; they support six large vases of porcelain, in which six china-orange-trees.) BOTH WOMEN Turn then the eyes upon those glories there, and catching flames will on thy torch appear. HYMEN My torch, indeed, will from such brightness shine, love ne er had yet such altars, so divine. (The pedestals move toward the front of the stage, and the grand dance begins of twenty-four persons; then Hymen and the two women sing together.) TRIO They shall be as happy as they re fair; love shall fill all the places of care, and every time the sun shall display his rising light, it shall be to them a new wedding-day; and when he sets, a new nuptial-night. CHORUS They shall be as happy as they re fair; love shall fill all the places of care, and every time the sun shall display his rising light, it shall be to them a new wedding-day; and when he sets, a new nuptial-night. (All the dancers join in it.) Chaconne Dance for Chinese man and woman. Overture ACT I (A palace. Enter Titania, leading the Indian boy, the fairies attending) FAIRIES Come, come, come, let us leave the town, and in some lonely place, where Crowds and noise were never known, resolve to spend our days. In pleasant shades upon the grass at night our selves we ll lay; our days in harmless sport shall pass, thus time shall slide away. (Enter fairies, leading a drunkard and blinded poet) Scene of the drunken poet DRUNKEN POET Fill up the bowl, then... 1st FAIRY, CHORUS Trip it, trip it in a ring; around this mortal dance, and sing. POET Enough, enough, we must play at blind man s buff. Turn me round, and stand away, I ll catch whom I may. 2nd FAIRY, CHORUS About him go, so, so, so, pinch the wretch from top to toe; pinch him forty, forty times, pinch till he confess his crimes. POET Hold you damn d tormenting punk, I do confess... FAIRIES What, what... POET I m drunk, as I live boys, drunk. FAIRIES What art thou, speak? POET If you will know it, I am a scurvy poet. FAIRIES Pinch him, pinch him for his crimes, his nonsense and his Dogrel rhymes. POET Hold! Oh! Oh! Oh! FAIRIES Confess more, more. POET I confess I m very poor. Nay prithee do not pinch me so, good dear devil let me go; and as I hope to wear the bays, I ll write a sonnet in thy praise. FAIRIES Drive em hence, away, away, let em sleep till break of day.

Airport Security In recent years getting through the security check at the airport has become a chore. In some cities, the whole process can take fifteen to twenty minutes or more. This includes standing in line, sending your bags through the X-ray machine, and walking through a metal detector, which “detects” or finds any metal you might have hidden on your body. Most security checks thus require passengers to take metal items out of their pockets and put them on a tray – or flat container – to send through the X-ray machine. Some countries – notably the United States – may even insist that passengers remove their coats and shoes.

+ ← クリックで目次を開く About LighthalzenStoryQuests City Travel Guide Somatology Laboratory DungeonFirst Second Floor Third Floor Fourth Floor About Lighthalzen iRO wiki の画像表示 The city of Lighthalzen is nestled in between canyons and mountain ranges, and the terrain around it is rough and rocky. Despite of this, the Rekenber Corporation still invested large sums of money to build and establish the city. The investment paid off, since now Lighthalzen is regarded as the commercial center of the Schwartzwald Republic. Teleporting or Fly-winging is prohibited in town. The fastest way to access the city (besides a Priest with a memo) is via the Airship×. Story Five hundred years ago, Zenit Zerter Lighthal, one of the leading scientists at the time, founded the Lighthal Laboratory. The research facility is set on a remote valley in the Schwartzwald Republic . Later on, when the Rekenber Corporation× gained ownership of the facility, they bought all the nearby villages and began construction of the great city known today as Lighthalzen. The city-state of Lighthalzen is divided into two districts, the residential district on the south side of the city and the commercial district on the north side. The residential district's main attraction is the world-renowned Rekenber Hotel, located in the center of the district. The commercial district contains an airship landing strip, the Lighthalzen Bank, various trading posts, and the Alchemist Guild House. More importantly, it houses the Rekenber Corporation Headquarters. The Rekenber Corporation is the biggest corporation in the Schwartzwald Republic . It is undeniably the driving force behind Lighthalzen, having great influence and responsibility over the city. The Corporation has spearheaded numerous researches and technological breakthroughs for years. These include the development of the Strahlenstein steam engine, which is being used for numerous tasks all throughout Schwartzwald, and the Airship, which has become a major form of interregional transportation in Midgard. But one of their most famous and controversial work is their research on the secrets of life, which resulted in the development of the Guardians – Midgard's first artificial life forms - said to be much stronger than any human being. Quests Quests added with the Lighthalzen update can be found here. City Travel Guide Almost all of the inhabitants of Lighthalzen are employees of the Rekenber Corporation. Some work for the Alchemist Guild, while others are traders and businessmen hoping to seek fortune within the city. For security reasons, the company strictly regulates movement of people within the city. Visitors without sufficient identification will be denied access inside Lighthalzen. Despite this, the Rekenber Corporation still has a good reputation among the residents of Lighthalzen, for they have bought prosperity to their city. Also on the outskirts of Lighthalzen is the slums area, where less fortunate citizens of Schwartzwald reside. The area started out as the remnants of the small villages bought out by the Rekenber Corp., but as more people poured in, the area gradually expanded. Although the Rekenber Corporation has an employment program for the residents of the slum area, and even donates 5% of its profits for social welfare programs, they prohibit the citizens of Lighthalzen from venturing into the slums. iRO wiki の画像表示 Somatology Laboratory Dungeon iRO wiki の画像表示 A biology experiment laboratory. Many so called "doppelgangers" of the many different job classes in Ragnarok Online live here, an example being the 1st class character monsters on floors one and two. It is said that the monsters in this dungeon are actually the angry spirits of humans who were experimented on, and had their bodies dumped in the bottom level. It is considered by many as the toughest dungeon in the game. First Second Floor Dungeon Maps 1st Floor / 2nd Floor Underneath Lighthalzen is the Somatology Laboratory, where most of the Rekenber Corporation's Life Experimentation tests are conducted. The first level is the main research facility, where most of the mainstream researches are done. It has state of the art equipment and also houses accommodations for its resident scientists. The second level is a highly restricted area, where only a few are granted access. This area is dedicated to the more clandestine experiments involving the secrets of life. Here one can find the prison cells where test subjects are confined. Due to some kind of accident in the facility, the laboratory appears to be abandoned; its test subjects now running amok. This place is well known for the large amounts of experience it yields, plus the monsters also drop powerful equipments for their respective jobs. See the Biolabs Entrance Quest for access. Third Floor Dungeon Map 3rd Floor The third level serves as a disposal site for the laboratory's hazardous waste materials. However, remains of human bodies from the Life Experimentation tests are also thrown in here. It is rumored that the vengeful spirits of these people haunt the place. The enemies here resemble the 2-1 branch of transcended characters (Assassin Cross) Eremes Guile / (MVP) Assassin Cross Eremes (High Priest) Margaretha Sorin / (MVP) High Priest Margaretha (High Wizard) Kathryne Keyron / (MVP) High Wizard Kathryne (Lord Knight) Seyren Windsor / (MVP) Lord Knight Seyren (Master Smith) Howard Alt-Eisen / (MVP) Master Smith Howard (Sniper) Cecil Damon / (MVP) Sniper Cecil Although all the biolab monsters look like players and use the same skills as players, they use them at a much higher level, far beyond the normal parameters of player's skills, both due to the high stats of the monsters, and the levels of the skill used. Kathryne Keyron (or simply the High Wizard Kathryne) casts a Jupitel Thunder× that hits 30 times, while the player's Jupitel Thunder hits only 12 times (contrary to rumor, she does not cast level 28, Jupitel Thunder level 10 hits 30 times when used by monsters, while only hitting 12 times when used by players) Also located on level 3 of the Lighthalzen Biolabs are the "mini-boss" versions of the 2-1 transcendent classes. These monsters look the same as others of their class, but their name is slightly different. For example, a normal monster might be called "Cecil Damon". Its mini-boss version will be called "Sniper Cecil", a pairing of the class-name and the character's name. Additionally, there will be a random MVP on the map at any time which will resemble any of the mini bosses, but will be even harder, and summon an entourage of the mini-boss versions of its colleagues at any time. Killing these boss monsters requires a high-level party, and often requires extreme use of tactics or "tricks" that take advantage of unintended interactions or bugs. Fourth Floor Dungeon Map 4th Floor The final floor of the Somatology Laboratory is the hidden laboratory of Wolchev, the mad scientist at Rekenber Corporation responsible for the human experimentation. Wolchev is forced to abandon the laboratory when his creations turn on him. The enemies here resemble the 2-2 branch of transcended characters (Stalker) Gertie (Champion) Chen Lio (Scholar) Celia Alde (Paladin) Randel Lawrence (Biochemist) Flamel Emure (Gypsy) Trentini (Minstrel) Alphoccio Accessing the 4th floor can be done at any time by entering a portal in the bottom-right corner of the 3rd floor. However, there is a shortcut to the laboratory, which can be taken after agreeing to help Wolchev clear his laboratory of spirits. In order to use this shortcut, you must first uncover the plot of the laboratory and discover Wolchev's wrongdoing by first completing the Biolabs Entrance Quest, then the Cursed Spirit Quest, start a third quest relating to rumors about the laboratory by talking to the NPC outside the sewer pipe in Lighthalzen slums, and finally, meet Wolchev in his lab by going into the fourth floor of the lab and having a one-on-one meeting with Wolchev (will happen with an instance automatically when entering the fourth floor once all conditions are met). - Ragnarok Online の 国× と 街 Ragnarok Online の 国× と 街 Rune-Midgarts Kingdom× Prontera× ・ Izlude× ・ Alberta× ・ Payon× ・ Archer Village× ・ Morroc× (Destroyed) ・ Geffen ・ Al De Baran× ・ Comodo× ・ Umbala× Republic of Schwartzvald× Juno× ・ Einbroch× ・ Einbech× ・ Hugel× ・ Lighthalzen ・ Verus× Arunafeltz States× Rachel× ・ Veins× New World× Rune Midgard Allied Forces Post× ・ Manuk× ・ Splendide× ・ El Dicastes ・ Mora Village× ・ Eclage× Standalone Lutie× ・ Jawaii× ・ Nifflheim× ・ Malangdo× ・ Dimensional Gap× ・ Lasagna× Global Project× Amatsu× ・ Kunlun× ・ Louyang× ・ Ayothaya× ・ Moscovia× ・ Brasilis× ・ Dewata× ・ Port Malaya× ・ Rock Ridge× Category 街

Page 1 of 2 NEAR FALLUJAH, Iraq, Nov. 9 -- U.S. forces pushed into the heart of Fallujah on Tuesday, encountering roadside bombs, rockets and gunfire on the second day of a battle to wrest control of the city from insurgents. Army and Marine units that entered Fallujah from the northeast and northwest on Monday night had fought their way to the city center and beyond by Tuesday night, U.S. commanders said. Soldiers with the Army s 1st Infantry Division made their way to the southeastern part of the city, a neighborhood of factories and warehouses where they expected to find guerrillas waiting for them. Instead, the district was relatively quiet, though the units reported being fired on by women and children armed with assault rifles. "There were multiple groups running around shooting at us," said Air Force Senior Airman Michael Smyre, 26, of Hickory, N.C., an airstrike spotter attached to the 1st Infantry who was wounded when a rocket hit his armored vehicle. "You could see a lot of rubble, trash everywhere. It was real nasty-looking." Marines fighting to the west of the Army units advanced to the main east-west highway that divides Fallujah and reported persistent resistance from insurgents firing from mosques. The U.S. military said 10 troops and two members of Iraq s security forces were killed in the first two days of the battle, the largest military operation since the U.S.-led invasion last year. U.S. and Iraqi leaders hope the assault will break the grip of insurgents who have held Fallujah for nearly seven months. Some Iraqi political and religious groups condemned the push into Fallujah, a stronghold of the Sunni Muslim minority. A leading Sunni organization, the Iraqi Islamic Party, quit the country s interim government, and Sunni clerics on Tuesday made good on threats to call for a boycott of January elections. Harith Dhari, head of the pro-insurgency Association of Muslim Scholars, said balloting would occur "over the corpses of those killed in Fallujah." Insurgents elsewhere in Iraq, meanwhile, continued a strategy of mounting attacks. In Baqubah, a restive city northeast of Baghdad, armed bands attacked two police stations. Police officials and the U.S. military said the attacks were beaten back. A car bomb at an Iraqi National Guard camp outside the northern city of Kirkuk killed three people and wounded two. And two U.S. service members were killed in a mortar attack on a base in Mosul, also in the north. In Baghdad, where insurgents on Monday night detonated a car bomb outside a hospital treating victims of two car bombs outside churches, interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi imposed a curfew from 10 30 p.m. to 4 a.m. U.S. fighter jets made low passes over the capital, a show of strength rarely seen since the 2003 invasion. At a news conference in Baghdad, Lt. Gen. Thomas Metz, the commander of foreign military operations in Iraq, said the assault on Fallujah had so far "achieved our objectives on or ahead of schedule." He added, "I think we re looking at several more days of tough urban fighting." The general said the battle plan as a whole was on course. "We felt like the enemy would form an outer crust in defense of Fallujah. We broke through that pretty quickly and easily," Metz said. "We also then anticipated him breaking up into small three- to six-person detachments or squads, which we ve seen throughout the day, today especially." Witnesses said that by Tuesday night, U.S. and Iraqi forces controlled the Jolan, Mualimeen and Askali neighborhoods in the north of Fallujah. They also held the Rawdha Muhammediya mosque, headquarters of the insurgent fighters and the mujaheddin shura, the city s self-appointed government. The assault pushed insurgents into Shuhada and other neighborhoods in the southernmost part of the city, where they are fighting and hiding behind buildings and houses, witnesses said. Metz said that because U.S. forces formed a "very tight" cordon around the city Sunday night, the enemy "doesn t have an escape route" and eventually would be cornered. Page 2 of 2 U.S. Forces Battle Into Heart of Fallujah http //www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35979-2004Nov9_2.html But Sheik Abdul-Sattar Edatha, the spokesman for the shura council, said most foreign fighters had already left the city. The U.S. military had estimated that there were 2,000 to 3,000 foreign fighters in the city, many of them part of a network linked to Jordanian-born guerrilla leader Abu Musab Zarqawi. "Militarily speaking, the city falls under the U.S. forces control," Edatha said. "The foreign fighters won t stay here and die. They lost the battle. They spread in other places." On Tuesday night, Fallujah s eerily empty streets were littered with shattered concrete and dead bodies, said a resident shaken by a missile strike on the second story of his family home. Insurgents cloaked in checkered head scarves carried wounded fellow fighters to mosques. Civilians caught in the crossfire were gathered in a hospital donated by the United Arab Emirates and flying a blue and white UNICEF banner. There, medical workers low on bandages and antiseptic bound wounds in ripped sheets and cleaned torn skin with hot water. The Jolan and Askali neighborhoods seemed particularly hard hit, with more than half of the houses destroyed. Dead bodies were scattered on the streets and narrow alleys of Jolan, one of Fallujah s oldest neighborhoods. Blood and flesh were splattered on the walls of some of the houses, witnesses said, and the streets were full of holes. Some of the heaviest damage apparently was incurred Monday night from air and artillery attacks that coincided with the entry of ground troops into the city. U.S. warplanes dropped eight 2,000-pound bombs on the city overnight, and artillery boomed throughout the night and into the morning. "Usually we keep the gloves on," said Army Capt. Erik Krivda, of Gaithersburg, the senior officer in charge of the 1st Infantry Division s Task Force 2-2 tactical operations command center. "For this operation, we took the gloves off." Some artillery guns fired white phosphorous rounds that create a screen of fire that cannot be extinguished with water. Insurgents reported being attacked with a substance that melted their skin, a reaction consistent with white phosphorous burns. Kamal Hadeethi, a physician at a regional hospital, said, "The corpses of the mujaheddin which we received were burned, and some corpses were melted." In addition to ripping open entire neighborhoods, the armor assault also brought into the open an insurgent command that until this week remained shadowy even to Fallujah residents. Ex-generals from the former Iraqi army s Republican Guard passed written orders, complete with official stamp, to subordinates who snapped salutes, witnesses said. Iraq s new army, formed after occupation authorities dismantled the armed forces that had served during the rule of Saddam Hussein, is taking part in the fight against insurgents in Fallujah, primarily as a rear element to help clear areas once U.S. forces have moved through. Marine commanders have declined to comment on the offensive, deferring to Iraqi officers. On Tuesday, Brig. Gen. Abdul-Qadir Muhammed Jasim characterized the offensive as "a holy task to fight for Fallujah people." "We will fight to the last drop of our blood to free our people," he said at a news conference just outside the city. "We will fulfill the tasks we ve been asked to do, with the cooperation of our friends." Jasim said that resistance had been lighter than expected and that the Iraqi soldiers were in good spirits and eager to finish the operation. "The operation is going very precise and with a very small number of casualties," he said. "In every place we finish an operation, our forces start to distribute aid, food, clothes, blankets and even money. . . . We are very sure that we are moving in the right way and will do the tasks we are asked to do very precisely." Metz repeatedly praised Iraqi forces, saying they had "acquitted themselves very well in this fight." Metz said the Iraqi soldiers had been used especially to search the city s 77 mosques. "In several mosques today, lots of munitions and weapons were found, and they were found by those Iraqi soldiers," he said. Metz s account suggested a marked improvement among the Iraqi troops in recent months. In April, the last time U.S. commanders tried to use Iraqi forces in Fallujah, a battalion of freshly trained Iraqi troops refused to go. A senior Iraqi official said it was too early to tell how the Iraqi forces performed. "During the operation you always hear they re doing good," said Industry Minister Hachim Hasani. "After the operations are finished, we ll find out." Hasani s political organization, the Iraqi Islamic Party, quit the interim government Tuesday to protest the Fallujah offensive. But Hasani, who opposed the U.S. Marine siege of the city earlier this year, quit the party Tuesday and retained his cabinet post. "Iraq is larger than any party," Hasani said. "Things should be done through the government, not outside the government." Vick and special correspondent Bassam Sebti reported from Baghdad. ファルージャでの白リン弾使用
